Ahead of a joint congressional transportation committee hearing in Los Angeles tomorrow, members of the Bus Riders Union held their own “People’s Field Hearing.”
The federal hearing will feature public officials giving their recommendations on how the next Federal Transportation Act, possibly worth half a trillion dollars, should allocate those funds. No public comment will be taken at the hearing tomorrow. Members of the Bus Riders made their voices heard today. Pacifica’s Dan Fritz filed this report from Los Angeles.
